RE: Babylon Literature

in #history7 years ago

Greetings, beautiful friend Tanata

Thank you very much for sharing this content about how Babylonian literature was.

I know one of your kings wrote one of the codes that became world famous. The code of Hamurabi, which placed the law of the taliao, where the famous saying "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" was spoken. In that part of the code, the crimes were reciprocal, that is, if someone did it wrong, you had the right to do exactly the same thing, and you would not be wrongly judged for it.

This is no longer the case today. Here in my country, the person can make him suffer in every possible way, but if the person retaliates, he is seen as a criminal too ....

Thank you and good night
